URGING UAHC CONSTITUENCY TO GIVE FINANCIAL AND MORAL SUPPORT TO PALESTINE

35th Council January 1937 New Orleans, LA

URGING UAHC CONSTITUENCY TO GIVE FINANCIAL AND MORAL SUPPORT TO PALESTINE

RESOLVED that the Union of American Hebrew Congregations, in council assembled, express its satisfaction with the progress made by the Jewish Agency in the upbuilding of Palestine. We see the hand of Providence in the opening of the Gates of Palestine for the Jewish people at a time when a large portion of Jewry is so desperately in need of a friendly shelter and a home where a spiritual, cultural center may be developed in accordance with Jewish ideals. The time has now come for all Jews, irrespective of ideological differences, to unite in the activities leading to the establishment of a Jewish homeland in Palestine, and we urge our constituency to give their financial and moral support to the work of rebuilding Palestine.
